2013-06-27config: Add a CPU clock command-line optionAkash Bagdia
This patch adds a 'cpu_clock' command-line option and uses the value to assign clocks to components running at the CPU speed (L1 and L2 including the L2-bus). The configuration scripts are updated accordingly. The 'clock' option is left unchanged in this patch as it is still used by a number of components. In follow-on patches the latter will be disambiguated further.
2013-06-13config: Do not instantiate membus when using rubyNilay Vaish
This patch moves the instantiation of system.membus in se.py to the area of code where classic memory system has been dealt with. Ruby does not require this bus and hence it should not be instantiated.
2013-04-22config: Add a mem-type config option to se/fs scriptsAndreas Hansson
This patch enables selection of the memory controller class through a mem-type command-line option. Behind the scenes, this option is treated much like the cpu-type, and a similar framework is used to resolve the valid options, and translate the short-hand description to a valid class. The regression scripts are updated with a hardcoded memory class for the moment. The best solution going forward is probably to get the memory out of the makeSystem functions, but Ruby complicates things as it does not connect the memory controller to the membus. --HG-- rename : configs/common/CpuConfig.py => configs/common/MemConfig.py
2013-04-22cpu: generate SimPoint basic block vector profilesDam Sunwoo
This patch is based on http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/1474/ originally written by Mitch Hayenga. Basic block vectors are generated (simpoint.bb.gz in simout folder) based on start and end addresses of basic blocks. Some comments to the original patch are addressed and hooks are added to create and resume from checkpoints based on instruction counts dictated by external SimPoint analysis tools. SimPoint creation/resuming options will be implemented as a separate patch.
2013-03-06ruby: remove the functional copy of memory in se modeNilay Vaish
This patch removes the functional copy of the memory that was maintained in the se mode. Now ruby itself will provide the data.
2013-01-07arch: Make the ISA class inherit from SimObjectAndreas Sandberg
The ISA class on stores the contents of ID registers on many architectures. In order to make reset values of such registers configurable, we make the class inherit from SimObject, which allows us to use the normal generated parameter headers. This patch introduces a Python helper method, BaseCPU.createThreads(), which creates a set of ISAs for each of the threads in an SMT system. Although it is currently only needed when creating multi-threaded CPUs, it should always be called before instantiating the system as this is an obvious place to configure ID registers identifying a thread/CPU.
2012-10-26config: Add a check for fastmem only used with Atomic CPUAndreas Hansson
This patch adds an additional check to ensure that the fastmem option is only used if the system is using the Atomic CPU.
2012-09-28Configs: SE script fix for Alpha and Ruby simulationsMalek Musleh
PIO interrupt port is only present for x86. Do not attempt to connect for other ISAs.
2012-09-12se.py Ruby: Connect TLB walker portsJoel Hestness
In order to ensure correct functionality of switch CPUs, the TLB walker ports must be connected to the Ruby system in x86 simulation. This fixes x86 assertion failures that the TLB walker ports are not connected during the CPU switch process.
2012-09-11se.py: removes error in passing options to a binaryNilay Vaish
2012-09-09se.py: support specifying multiple programs via command lineNilay Vaish
This patch allows for specifying multiple programs via command line. It also adds an option for specifying whether to use of SMT. But SMT does not work for the o3 cpu as of now.
2012-07-23Config: Use clock option in se/fs script and pass to switch_cpusAndreas Hansson
This patch changes the se and fs script to use the clock option and not simply set the CPUs clock to 2 GHz. It also makes a minor change to the assignment of the switch_cpus clock to allow different clocks.
2012-07-10ruby: changes how Topologies are createdBrad Beckmann
Instead of just passing a list of controllers to the makeTopology function in src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/<Topo>.py we pass in a function pointer which knows how to make the topology, possibly with some extra state set in the configs/ruby/<protocol>.py file. Thus, we can move all of the files from network/topologies to configs/topologies. A new class BaseTopology is added which all topologies in configs/topologies must inheirit from and follow its API. --HG-- rename : src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/Crossbar.py => configs/topologies/Crossbar.py rename : src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/Mesh.py => configs/topologies/Mesh.py rename : src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/MeshDirCorners.py => configs/topologies/MeshDirCorners.py rename : src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/Pt2Pt.py => configs/topologies/Pt2Pt.py rename : src/mem/ruby/network/topologies/Torus.py => configs/topologies/Torus.py
2012-05-31Bus: Split the bus into a non-coherent and coherent busAndreas Hansson
This patch introduces a class hierarchy of buses, a non-coherent one, and a coherent one, splitting the existing bus functionality. By doing so it also enables further specialisation of the two types of buses. A non-coherent bus connects a number of non-snooping masters and slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the address. The request packets issued by the master connected to a non-coherent bus could still snoop in caches attached to a coherent bus, as is the case with the I/O bus and memory bus in most system configurations. No snoops will, however, reach any master on the non-coherent bus itself. The non-coherent bus can be used as a template for modelling PCI, PCIe, and non-coherent AMBA and OCP buses, and is typically used for the I/O buses. A coherent bus connects a number of (potentially) snooping masters and slaves, and routes the request and response packets based on the address, and also forwards all requests to the snoopers and deals with the snoop responses. The coherent bus can be used as a template for modelling QPI, HyperTransport, ACE and coherent OCP buses, and is typically used for the L1-to-L2 buses and as the main system interconnect. The configuration scripts are updated to use a NoncoherentBus for all peripheral and I/O buses. A bit of minor tidying up has also been done. --HG-- rename : src/mem/bus.cc => src/mem/coherent_bus.cc rename : src/mem/bus.hh => src/mem/coherent_bus.hh rename : src/mem/bus.cc => src/mem/noncoherent_bus.cc rename : src/mem/bus.hh => src/mem/noncoherent_bus.hh
2012-05-16Config: Fix a typo in the se.py script for setting fastmemAndreas Hansson
This patch changes a hardcoded index 0 to the appropriate CPU index so that fastmem is set correctly for all the CPUs in the system.
2012-04-17SE Config: Changed se.py to support multithreaded modeJayneel Gandhi
Multithreaded programs did not run by just specifying the binary once on the command line of SE mode.The default mode is multi-programmed mode. Added check in SE mode to run multi-threaded programs in case only one program is specified with multiple CPUS. Default mode is still multi-programmed mode.
2012-04-06MEM: Enable multiple distributed generalized memoriesAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the assumption on having on single instance of PhysicalMemory, and enables a distributed memory where the individual memories in the system are each responsible for a single contiguous address range. All memories inherit from an AbstractMemory that encompasses the basic behaviuor of a random access memory, and provides untimed access methods. What was previously called PhysicalMemory is now SimpleMemory, and a subclass of AbstractMemory. All future types of memory controllers should inherit from AbstractMemory. To enable e.g. the atomic CPU and RubyPort to access the now distributed memory, the system has a wrapper class, called PhysicalMemory that is aware of all the memories in the system and their associated address ranges. This class thus acts as an infinitely-fast bus and performs address decoding for these "shortcut" accesses. Each memory can specify that it should not be part of the global address map (used e.g. by the functional memories by some testers). Moreover, each memory can be configured to be reported to the OS configuration table, useful for populating ATAG structures, and any potential ACPI tables. Checkpointing support currently assumes that all memories have the same size and organisation when creating and resuming from the checkpoint. A future patch will enable a more flexible re-organisation. --HG-- rename : src/mem/PhysicalMemory.py => src/mem/AbstractMemory.py rename : src/mem/PhysicalMemory.py => src/mem/SimpleMemory.py rename : src/mem/physical.cc => src/mem/abstract_mem.cc rename : src/mem/physical.hh => src/mem/abstract_mem.hh rename : src/mem/physical.cc => src/mem/simple_mem.cc rename : src/mem/physical.hh => src/mem/simple_mem.hh
2012-04-03Atomic: Remove the physmem_port and access memory directlyAndreas Hansson
This patch removes the physmem_port from the Atomic CPU and instead uses the system pointer to access the physmem when using the fastmem option. The system already keeps track of the physmem and the valid memory address ranges, and with this patch we merely make use of that existing functionality. As a result of this change, the overloaded getMasterPort in the Atomic CPU can be removed, thus unifying the CPUs.
2012-03-28Config: Change the way options are addedNilay Vaish
I am not too happy with the way options are added in files se.py and fs.py currently. This patch moves all the options to the file Options.py, functions from which are called when required.
2012-03-11se.py: Changes to ruby portion due to SE/FS mergeNilay Vaish
With the SE/FS merge, interrupt controller is created irrespective of the mode. This patch creates the interrupt controller when Ruby is used and connects its ports.
2012-03-09CheckerCPU: Make CheckerCPU runtime selectable instead of compile selectableGeoffrey Blake
Enables the CheckerCPU to be selected at runtime with the --checker option from the configs/example/fs.py and configs/example/se.py configuration files. Also merges with the SE/FS changes.

2012-02-14MEM: Fix master/slave ports in Ruby and non-regression scriptsAndreas Hansson
This patch brings the Ruby and other scripts up to date with the introduction of the master/slave ports.
2012-02-13MEM: Introduce the master/slave port roles in the Python classesAndreas Hansson
This patch classifies all ports in Python as either Master or Slave and enforces a binding of master to slave. Conceptually, a master (such as a CPU or DMA port) issues requests, and receives responses, and conversely, a slave (such as a memory or a PIO device) receives requests and sends back responses. Currently there is no differentiation between coherent and non-coherent masters and slaves. The classification as master/slave also involves splitting the dual role port of the bus into a master and slave port and updating all the system assembly scripts to use the appropriate port. Similarly, the interrupt devices have to have their int_port split into a master and slave port. The intdev and its children have minimal changes to facilitate the extra port. Note that this patch does not enforce any port typing in the C++ world, it merely ensures that the Python objects have a notion of the port roles and are connected in an appropriate manner. This check is carried when two ports are connected, e.g. bus.master = memory.port. The following patches will make use of the classifications and specialise the C++ ports into masters and slaves.

2012-01-17MEM: Add port proxies instead of non-structural portsAndreas Hansson
Port proxies are used to replace non-structural ports, and thus enable all ports in the system to correspond to a structural entity. This has the advantage of accessing memory through the normal memory subsystem and thus allowing any constellation of distributed memories, address maps, etc. Most accesses are done through the "system port" that is used for loading binaries, debugging etc. For the entities that belong to the CPU, e.g. threads and thread contexts, they wrap the CPU data port in a port proxy. The following replacements are made: FunctionalPort > PortProxy TranslatingPort > SETranslatingPortProxy VirtualPort > FSTranslatingPortProxy --HG-- rename : src/mem/vport.cc => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/vport.hh => src/mem/fs_translating_port_proxy.hh rename : src/mem/translating_port.cc => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.cc rename : src/mem/translating_port.hh => src/mem/se_translating_port_proxy.hh
2012-01-05Config: Add an option of type 'choice' for cpu typeNilay Vaish
This patch adds a new option for cpu type. This option is of type 'choice' which is similar to a C++ enum, except that it takes string values as possible choices. Following options are being removed -- detailed, timing, inorder. --HG-- extra : rebase_source : 58885e2e8a88b6af8e6ff884a5922059dbb1a6cb
2011-08-02Scons: Drop RUBY as compile time option.Nilay Vaish
This patch drops RUBY as a compile time option. Instead the PROTOCOL option is used to figure out whether or not to build Ruby. If the specified protocol is 'None', then Ruby is not compiled.
2011-07-11se.py: Fixes the way ruby's options are addedNilay Vaish
2011-06-30Ruby: Add support for functional accessesBrad Beckmann ext:(%2C%20Nilay%20Vaish%20%3Cnilay%40cs.wisc.edu%3E)
This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.
2011-05-23config: tweak ruby configs to clean up hierarchySteve Reinhardt
Re-enabling implicit parenting (see previous patch) causes current Ruby config scripts to create some strange hierarchies and generate several warnings. This patch makes three general changes to address these issues. 1. The order of object creation in the ruby config files makes the L1 caches children of the sequencer rather than the controller; these config ciles are rewritten to assign the L1 caches to the controller first. 2. The assignment of the sequencer list to system.ruby.cpu_ruby_ports causes the sequencers to be children of system.ruby, generating warnings because they are already parented to their respective controllers. Changing this attribute to _cpu_ruby_ports fixes this because the leading underscore means this is now treated as a plain Python attribute rather than a child assignment. As a result, the configuration hierarchy changes such that, e.g., system.ruby.cpu_ruby_ports0 becomes system.l1_cntrl0.sequencer. 3. In the topology classes, the routers become children of some random internal link node rather than direct children of the topology. The topology classes are rewritten to assign the routers to the topology object first.

2011-03-19se.py: Modify script to make multiprogramming much easier.Lisa Hsu
Now, instead of --bench benchname, you can do --bench bench1-bench2-bench3 and it will set up a simulation that instantiates those three workloads. Only caveat is that now, for sanity checking, your -n X must match the number of benches in the list.

2010-02-25configs: pull out cache configuration code from se.py and fs.py.Lisa Hsu
Most of these frontend configurations share cache configuration code, pull it out so that changes to caches don't have to require changing multiple config files.
2010-02-23cache: Make caches sharing aware and add occupancy stats.Lisa Hsu
On the config end, if a shared L2 is created for the system, it is parameterized to have n sharers as defined by option.num_cpus. In addition to making the cache sharing aware so that discriminating tag policies can make use of context_ids to make decisions, I added an occupancy AverageStat and an occ % stat to each cache so that you could know which contexts are occupying how much cache on average, both in terms of blocks and percentage. Note that since devices have context_id -1, having an array of occ stats that correspond to each context_id will break here, so in FS mode I add an extra bucket for device blocks. This bucket is explicitly not added in SE mode in order to not only avoid ugliness in the stats.txt file, but to avoid broken stats (some formulas break when a bucket is 0).

2008-07-23process: separate stderr from stdoutMichael Adler
- Add the option of redirecting stderr to a file. With the old behaviour, stderr would follow stdout if stdout was to a file, but stderr went to the host stderr if stdout went to the host stdout. The new default maintains stdout and stderr going to the host. Now the two can specify different files, but they will share a file descriptor if the name of the files is the same. - Add --output and --errout options to se.py to go with --input.
